Todd Starnes ' race baiting suggestion that the Obama administration "may be orchestrating the Michael Brown tragedy" won our Outrageous Fox News Quote Of The Week poll last week. But two other quotes came within one or two votes of winning.
To refresh your memory, Starnes wrote a Facebook post designed to portray President Obama as some kind of race hustler fomenting the protests in Ferguson, Missouri over the shooting death of unarmed black teen Michael Brown by a white police officer. Starnes wrote:
The uncivil unrest in Ferguson, Missouri continues—and it appears the Obama Administration may be orchestrating the Michael Brown tragedy.
In a field of 11 entries, Starnes won 53, or 25%, of the 209 total votes. However, it was very nearly a three-way tie. Andrea Tantaros' murderous prescription for dealing with Muslims received 52 votes. Sean Hannity's condescending remarks to an African American Ferguson Committeewoman garnered 51.

Stay tuned for another Outrageous Fox News Quote of the Week poll tomorrow night.

The best karma is for President Obama to purchase News Corporation stock when he leaves office. That will shut these Fox “News” mouths up.
Attacking News Corp. investors or board members and their companies is strictly forbidden, and will result in termination.
You have to beat them at their own game.
NOTE TO TODDY
Since you call yourself a christian, which we find hard to believe, we found verses that best describes you.
This is you:
Leviticus 19:17
1 John 4:8
